There are some very good aftermarket pad options that not only resolve this issue but also reduce brake dust.

The only difference is the size of the rotor paired with that caliper is different between the applications. I.e. the rotors on a F30 340i with the blue M-Sport brakes are smaller than the rotors on an M3. Same calipers though.
